Man I love ePub

I recently listened to a very interesting podcast from the Pragmatic Programmers featuring an interview with Uncle Bob. At the end they talked about a book Robert had recommended at the most recent RailsConf called Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs.

It’s an older book but it sounded like a really interesting read - and as a lot of languages are in the process of rediscovering the concepts of Lisp and Smalltalk - it’s quite relevant too. To my luck the book is available under the Creative Commons license¹ and this nice fellow had gone to the trouble of converting it into a really nice² ePub formatted ebook.

The book now lives in Stanza on my iPhone along with a bunch of other ebooks that I can now carry with me everywhere I go - Never again will I be without reading material while waiting for stuff³ to happen.

A huge Thank you! to MIT for making this material available for all to read! ↩︎
All that was missing was the cover, but that was easily added in Stanza ↩︎
Waiting in line at the supermarket, waiting at the doctors office, waiting for the bus and all those other wasted hours and minutes that litter our everyday lives ↩︎
